I am determined to go skiing next year. Very determined! I have already bought skiing clothes for the kids. Can you believe it? Although optimum skiing conditions around my area will only happen around August/Sept, I’ve already planned ahead. It’s summer here…so getting winter clothes now, is definitely much cheaper!
I’ve been looking all over the [...]

Gosh..the nappies here suck big time! I’ve been trying to find the best night [...]

But..seriously, I think I will be just like Barbara of Mummy to Chumsy.. she is dieting and staying off carbs and I can really see a [...]

Yes! It’s true…everytime I turn a page in a women’s magazine, it has all the “Before” and “After” pictures screaming at me…..TAKE THOSE PILLS! TAKE THOSE PILLS! Or take Lipovox!

See.. I kept wanting to [...]

But where will I go? I’m still looking. The Outer Banks [...]
